"Another Wilde brother's story makes the pages sizzle"

In this story, we meet gorgeous, sexy Steve Wilde, a private investigator out to seduce the woman who's tempted him for far too long.

Liz Adams, owner of The Daily Grind coffee shop, is worried about her cousin, Valerie, who's taken a job as a phone-sex operator and seems to have disappeared. Liz made a promise to her aunt and uncle, who raised her after her parents died, to watch over their daughter and keep her safe. Liz hires Steve to help her find Valerie. Steve is more than ready to spend some time with this beautiful woman he's been dreaming about. Liz is also ready for Steve, from his black leather jacket to his deeply seductive eyes. Their attraction is combustible.

As Liz enters into her cousin's world at The Ultimate Fantasy, she and Steve enter into their own world of hot and steamy phone sex and a no-holds-barred affair complete with warm caramel. The relationship quickly goes further, and they find themselves matched intellectually as well as intimately. Steve is a gorgeous, tender, generous man who isn't afraid to wear his heart on his sleeve; a man Liz is sure will never hurt her. Liz is a smart, independent and sexy woman who completes Steve physically, as well as emotionally. They're a match made in heaven.

The pages literally sizzle with steamy love scenes and characters just as combustible. Pick up WILDE THING, turn on the air conditioner, grab a Popsicle and enjoy this bit of luxury. It's wonderful! The Wilde brothers are as untamed as their last name. We met Eric in the anthology I Brake for Bad Boys (which is also a must-read). In November, Adrian will be the last of the Wilde men to be tamed in the Bad Boys To Go anthology, sure to be another winner.

Summary

SHE CAN'T STOP THINKING OF HIM

Serious bad boy. That's what Liz Adams thinks when she catches sight of dark, gorgeous Steve Wilde sitting at a table in her coffee house, giving her a look of bold, satisfying appraisal that has nothing to do with her espresso skills. Still, the man is the best P.I. in town, and the only person who might be able to help Liz track down her irresponsible, free-spirited cousin . . . if she can manage to spend more than two minutes in his company without surrendering to the wild fantasies dancing in her head.

HE CAN'T STOP WANTING HER

Oh, baby. That's exactly how Steve Wilde feels every time he comes into Liz's cafe and catches sight of her sexy figure behind the counter. But a man can only pretend to be interested in the pastries for so long. Now that Liz has opened the door to him, Steve intends to storm right through it, along with her defenses, and show the aloof beauty what she's been missing . . . and what he intends to do about it, slowly, deliberately, deliciously . . .

THERE'S NO STOPPING EITHER OF THEM

Now, in a cat-and-mouse game where the thrill of the forbidden is never quite enough, a business arrangement is about to yield to pleasure . . . and the temptations that can only be found when hearts run wild . . .
